Explaining the sweet reason for her middle name in an interview with OK! Magazine, Ferne said: 'Francis is my grandad's name – it's a nod to Grandad Frank.'

The traditional name is of Latin origin, meaning 'Frenchman' or 'free man'.

Going on to reveal the inspiration behind Finty's unqiue name, she said: 'I don’t know where I got it from, but when I typed it in [on Google ] I saw Judi Dench ’s daughter’s nickname is Finty.

'I've always loved it and never heard it anywhere else before. I just feel so connected to the name – she came out and she was just Finty. I think she sounds like a character out of Bridgerton.'

The reality star then went on to explain the meaning behind Finty's middle name, noting that there was a special family connection.
